The business offers a wide range of re-upholstery services and uses the most suitable materials for the purpose of each and every project. Commercial projects include working with pubs as well as schools and businesses with waiting rooms.But now the family behind the business have launched Days Upholstery School - a chance for members of the public to develop their own skills in refurbishing worn or old pieces of furniture.

Gemma, who has worked at Days Upholstery herself for more than 20 years, explained:"This is a new set up for us as we are diversifying from traditional upholstery into teaching. "We want, moving forward, to do more traditional upholstery classes, such as rebuilding a dining chair, or a foot stall, using horsehair, needles, ties, springs etc and, in the future, we will also be teaching people how to diamond button, which is a tricky skill to learn.
